I do not get how making out with a male is considered a blackmail worthy offense.

I'm already quite publicly a polyamorous sex-positive atheist, I'm not running for political office any time soon

Unfortunately, in the US today, probably atheism.

Okay, I cross that off then. How about naturism? In east Germany its a trivial part of the culture. In the US it seems to be a highly stigmatized lifestyle.
